But if you want some perspective from the man who lives that life, The Crimson White spoke to Paul W. Bryant Jr., the pro tempore of the University of Alabama's Board of Trustees, about having the Crimson Tide legend for a father.

Bryant says it was tough growing up in his father's shadow, but the Birmingham native also recalls his successes in the private sector throughout his business career. He also discusses his childhood, life in college and brief career in sports.

Bryant is currently the president of Greene Group Inc., a privately held holding company.
